Warm fragrant water swirling around my ears. Slipping into a place where weight is literally
lifted in the buoyancy.
Jets are nice, but I find they can be a little
tedious. I like the quiet. Listening to the waves in my own little
paradise. Hearing the water move and lap
against the side. The key is a deep vessel and a lot of hot water. Lavender baby oil and Warm Vanilla Sugar bubble bath are comforting, another layer of warmth.
Before I became a mother I always had a book or something to read when I would soak. But now, I enjoy the quiet in my mind that comes with time alone. I don’t have to be constantly entertained or stimulated anymore. Peace and quiet have a new place of reverence in my life.
I hope you find peace today. I’m going to take a bath.
Oh so jealous!! Now, when aches and pains come and a good HOT soak in a deep, relaxing bath would be so welcome, I am stuck with a shallow, narrow tub from the 70's - not sure why it's so small, but hoping in the near future to be able to switch it out - along with the pink tiles on walls and floor! I may just hang your tub on my wall - so relaxing, beautiful, and perhaps my promise for the future!!! :) God bless!
ReplyDeleteGirl, don't be jealous of me. This is a picture of the tub I'm dreaming of when I'm in my shallow tub surrounded by PURPLE tile. Haha. This picture is a promise of the future for both of us! God bless you, too.

ReplyDeleteOh my I so wish I could take a nice quite bath again, I used to take a lot of baths before I had my kids. but now trying to find time alone is not easy. And by the time they go to bed I am so tired that if I take a bath than I might fall asleep in the bath tub for the whole night. Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteBaths are more special after children! Taking a shower with the door closed because husband is home to look after Ty is like going to the spa.
